Heat Buster Observations

  Glitch?
  So i've been seeing this happen for a while with my own heat buster, but i couldn't narrow down the cause. This mainly happens with Grumbils with me, when i launch heat buster and if the animation is interrupted after the attack, by say grumbil #2 attacking me.. I get to attack again with Heat Buster. Im not sure if its a glitch or it is part of how Heat Buster works.
  
  
  
  *Recommendation to Heat Busters* Use a Tower Cylinder with heat buster on bosses or huge rooms with strong mobs; (Hard Mode Shadow warrior tends to take 1.8-2.3k base damage w/o crit and w/ Heat buster title) However the stamina drain is annoying, as its about 2x the normal stamina drain (23 Stamina becomes 46)
  **Carry alot of Stamina Potions when using Heat Buster; that goes for if your using Chain Cylinder too, and both at the same time hurts stamina quite a bit.

  Same glitch happens with Frozen Blast too.
  
  If you get interrupted during the animation, you get to reload it right away, ignoring the 15 second cool down.
  
  It's even more apparent when you get attacked as soon as you use it, yet the attack was "successful" meaning the monsters get frozen despite the animation never finishing and you get to load it right away.
